Project pages can be output in the following image file formats: BMP, GIF, JPG, PNG and TIFF.
If you export a single page, then you can freely assign the file name. When exporting multiple pages, the file name cannot be freely chosen. In this case, the image files are named with the complete page name.

- Select the following commands: Tab Home > Command group Page > Navigator.
- In the page navigator, select the pages of a project (or the entire project) that you wish to export.
- Select the following commands: File > Export > Command group Project data > Project data > Command group Page > Image file.
Eplan opens the Image file export dialog. The chosen files are displayed in the Source field. - In the Scheme field, select an appropriate scheme for the image file export.
